Winter in New York has a habit of sneaking up on you. One day you're walking home carrying your blazer, the next you're wishing you brought a warmer coat. Cold weather is not my jam, so it truly pains me to know that these unseasonably balmy fall days are going to give way to wind chill factors at any moment. Since I'm going to Paris next week, and then straight to the West Coast for Thanksgiving, I need to mentally prepare for a return to proper NYC winter.
I also need to actually prepare. There's nothing worse than coming home to freezing temperatures, only to realize your cozy things are MIA. Right about now is the time for me to get ahead of shopping for winter necessities, but I have zero time to do any shopping that's not online. If Amazon is your go-to for one-and-done shopping, then these picks are for you. From in-the-know beauty products to editor-approved winter fashion (care of The Shop by Shopbop), here are some random bits and pieces that make winter a whole lot better.
I promise this is a thing.
My winter lips eat this right up.
We never gave up on pops of red.
Puffer totes during the winter just feel right.
Do not make me remove a glove to use my phone.
If I could dive into this bottle, I would.
When I'm staying with my in-laws over the holidays, I always find I need cozy, comfy, but semi-presentable things to wear around the house. Sets like this are perfect, and this one comes in loads of colors (including plain or striped options).
I'm a stickler for bringing my reusable cup to get coffee on my morning dog walk, and am finally investing in one that will keep it warm when it's freezing out.
And a new winter jacket for my dog to tolerate.
Elegant.
Fun with loafers.
Filed under "winter basics."
I usually let my hair air-dry, but that's not always the move when it's chilly out. Dyson remains an editor-favorite for gentle drying.
Some extra love for my heat-dried hair.
When you just want your turtleneck to stay tucked.
Maybe I'm too deep in the boat shoe trend, but these moccasin-style cozy slippers are doing it for me.
So good on dry winter skin.
Never enough knits.
These little pocket-warming miracles are staple of my styling kit.
She's cozy.
Working from home pants.
Vince knows what's up when it comes to cashmere accessories.
See above.
Is it just me, or do these feel a little festive?
Perfectly oversize.
It's hot-yoga season.
It's also soup season (and these come in such good colors).
Classic.
I love everything from Nécessaire, but particularly this ultra-hydrating body serum with hyaluronic acid.
Use this first.
Everyday boots to wear on repeat.
Classic Chelsea boots are always a good idea.
These actually stay up under my knee-high boots.
Breathing life into my winter skin.
The perfect crewneck sweater.
This style gets great reviews.
Ask any Australian or Kiwi about the magic of lanolin.
Thousands and thousands of five star ratings.
Recommended by my GP.
An extra-wide scoop neck (and variety of color ways) means this thermal layer works under more tops and sweaters.
When sheer tights just won't cut it.
I think I'm into these.
